I need some help figuring some of this out. I've got my button and a few things in place. I'm trying to teach myself how to more so create a frame in the lua now and trying to understand it a little more. But what I need help on is a few different things.

*I need the button to show and hide my Options frame when it's clicked.
*I need to figure out how to move text up to the top of the frame in the center.
*I need to add some check boxes for each window frame for when there checked they will show my other windows.
*I need to add another check boxes that when it's checked it locks each windows.

The windows I'm trying to hide/show and lock are in my xml.

Here is my code and I'll leave the attachment of the updated addon so far that I'm working on.

LUA Code

Lua Code:
  1. --Want to add Show Hide function for each window. ( barQWindow, barAWindow, barMWindow, barCWindow )
  2. --With the Show Hide I want to add this in an addon options window.
  3. --Want to add a lock frame for each window. 
  4. --With lock frame I want to add this in an addon options window.
  5.  
  6. --Create a button using lua that pulls up a window for ZBar Options.
  7.  
  8. -- creates a generic button in the middle of the screen --
  9. ZBarButton = CreateFrame("Button","ZBarButton",UIParent,"UIPanelButtonTemplate")
  10. ZBarButton:SetPoint("CENTER",0,0)
  11. ZBarButton:SetWidth(30)
  12. ZBarButton:SetHeight(30)
  13. ZBarButton:SetText("ZB")
  14. ZBarButton:SetMovable(true)
  15. ZBarButton:RegisterForDrag("LeftButton")
  16. ZBarButton:SetScript("OnDragStart",ZBarButton.StartMoving)
  17. ZBarButton:SetScript("OnDragStop",ZBarButton.StopMovingOrSizing)
  18.  
  19. ZBarOptionFrame = CreateFrame("Frame")
  20. ZBarOptionFrame:ClearAllPoints()
  21. ZBarOptionFrame:SetBackdrop(StaticPopup1:GetBackdrop())
  22. ZBarOptionFrame:SetHeight(300)
  23. ZBarOptionFrame:SetWidth(300)
  24.  
  25. ZBarOptionFrame.text = ZBarOptionFrame:CreateFontString(nil, "BACKGROUND", "GameFontNormal")
  26. ZBarOptionFrame.text:SetAllPoints()
  27. ZBarOptionFrame.text:SetText("ZBar Options Verison 1.0")
  28. ZBarOptionFrame:SetPoint("CENTER", 0, 0)

XML

Lua Code:
